Genius jose andres' tuna tartare with coconut lime sesame dressing
Dressings
This is an approximation of one of my fondest food memories--
<br />eating at Jose Andres' beautiful D.C. restaurant, Café Atlantico,
<br />while gazing at a magical painting which transported me to the sun-
<br /> drenched fields of Spain. In this tartare, raw tuna is mixed with a
<br /> dressing of coconut milk, lime juice, sesame oil and
<br />slivered scallions. Just before serving, crushed corn nuts are
<br />added in for their delightful crunchy texture! Jose was delighted
<br /> that I wanted to know all about his creation, and he introduced
<br /> me to his chef and the prep station for the dish. As significant
<br /> as this was, it resulted in our returning for the tasting meal at
<br />the Minibar , a 'most memorable of all' highlight of my culinary
<br />life! When I started making this for myself, I tweaked a few elements, and added sesame oil and sesame seeds because I love the toasted element that they bring. I sincerely hope Jose would approve.
